If you are making a presentation using Google Slides, you will probably want to add a video from YouTube at some stage to illustrate a point.  The question is – how does one do this?

1. Open your presentation and choose the video option in the Insert menu

The video insert link appears on your slide. Add your YouTube video URL and click on search

YouTube immediately locates the video and adds it to the slide

2. Click on the video  thumbnail and choose select if it is the correct video.

Your video is embedded and can now be enlarged to fit to the page.  Once your video is embedded you can publish your presentation to the web and whoever views it will be able to view the video as well.

It is so quick and easy!
